Engraved Silver Utensil/Many Scenes Emerge on Cleaned Silver Spoon

[bergie]

Here's cleaned up spoon with engraving of school from Washington state and lots of other details now visible...Thanks to Earthworks for cleaning and photography...The scenery on front of spoon handle now visible is George Washington's face and the word Washington below and above George are mountains and dam/river, a miner with pick hitting rock wall with railway into mine, he's cutting down trees, there's a sloop in the water, there's the engraving of the high school on the bowl of spoon, on the back of handle are fish, crab, starfish, pick/shovel and bucket...maker mark is MB with a pick and shovel in-between the letters. Silver spoon but has a cool goldish tint. Hoping the historical society for the town noted on spoon bowl will get back to us with info...
